Pioneering aviator, best-selling writer and humanist, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry wrote The Little PrinceTM in 1943. The story is inspired by Saint-Exupéry’s own experience of being a pilot stranded in the Sahara Desert in the 1930s after a long-distance race. He originally wrote the book for young children but it resonated with readers of all ages through its messages of respect for humanity, friendship, authenticity, and charity. To date, the book has sold over 200 million copies and has reached more than 400 million readers around the world.
A true cultural phenomenon, millions of fans are also experiencing The Little PrinceTM in ways the author could have only imagined with visits to the theme park in France, the museum in Japan, the flagship store in Paris and even on the International Space Station. The Little PrinceTM movie has been seen by over 50 million viewers in theaters and on Netflix. A robust social media presence is driven by more than 10 million Facebook followers and 4 million views on its official YouTube channel.
“Coming off the fantastic 75th Anniversary year for The Little PrinceTM we are extremely pleased with the focus and attention given to our Brand by Licensing Works!® and happy to welcome these exciting new Licensees to the family” said Thomas Riviere, General Manager, SOGEX, an arm of the estate of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
